Last updated: December 1, 2025

This Cookie Policy explains how lauravanhapelto.com, operated by Embodied Wisdom Coaching Oy (“we”, “us”, “our”), uses cookies and similar technologies on our website.

By using this Website, you agree to the use of cookies as described in this Policy.

If you have questions, you may contact us at laura@vanhapelto.com.

1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website.
They help the site function properly, improve performance, and offer insights into how visitors use the site.

Cookies may be:

  • Essential (strictly necessary) – required for the website to function

  • Analytics – help understand how visitors use the site

  • Marketing / performance – used to improve or personalize content

2. Cookies We Use

Essential Cookies

These cookies are required for the basic operation of our website and cannot be disabled.
They include:

  • site security and permission handling

  • navigation and basic site settings

  • maintaining the correct functioning of Hostinger Website Builder

Analytics Cookies

We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use our website so we can improve content and user experience.

Google Analytics collects anonymous or pseudonymized information such as:

  • pages visited

  • time spent on the site

  • browser and device type

  • general geographic region

Google Analytics does not give us access to personally identifiable information.

Marketing / Performance Cookies

Hostinger Reach and other built-in Hostinger tools may set cookies to:

  • enable newsletter sign-ups

  • track general engagement

  • measure performance of on-site forms

We may run paid advertising from time to time; however, we do not use advertising pixels (such as Meta/Facebook Pixel) or retargeting technologies on this website.

3. Consent and Limitations of the Platform

Our website is built with Hostinger Website Builder, which currently supports only a basic cookie banner.

The platform does not allow installing external cookie management tools or granular consent controls (such as separate approval for analytics or marketing cookies).

Because of this technical limitation:

  • some non-essential cookies may load immediately

  • visitors cannot individually enable or disable cookie categories

We provide full transparency through this Policy and use cookies only for essential functionality, analytics, and basic site improvement.

If you need assistance or prefer your data not to be collected, please contact us at laura@vanhapelto.com.

5. Third-Party Cookies
